Post Match Leicester City 2 Barnsley 2

[Redditch Fox]

The last time we were in a comparable position in our history - outside the top flight for a sustained period - was under Pleat. Then we were depressingly average to poor season in, season out. Our attendances were less than 10,000 and the atmosphere was often dreadful. This only changed when Brian Little and Barrie Pierpoint reinvented the club for the better. Two people that were eventually treated as villians despite the remarkable job they did for us on and off the field. We have no equivalents to them today and, until we do, I fear that people won't be arsed to create the atmosphere you're after.

In spite of the disconnection largely caused by the absurd wages - fuelled by televsion revenue and debt - gates have held up remarkably well....and not just at Leicester.

The atmosphere has gone partly because working class people have been partially out priced balanced out by better off people now not looking down on the game. It's all about getting more Bs and C1 consumers into the ground and buying the merchandise.

Fair do's if it was the season before last. How time flies.

Your response though brought to mind that tremendous bit in 'Life of Brian' with the little pockets of ignoramuses with their respective takes on the people's front of judea. Within reason, if we can't accept each other's foibles or interpretations of what it is to be a supporter, we're not really going to get very far.

Foibles is one thing. Actively violating ground regulations and in some cases the law is another entirely, and certainly not necessary to 'support the team', especially not when it affects other fans' enjoyment of the experience.

Without punctuation, you said that we conceded two goals before kick-off. We didn't.

...Ok then Macky

 

[Arightfilbert]

25 shots on goal to their 5.........it should have been 5-1!
We obviously need to work on our finishing.

I missed most of the commentary but it seems obvious to me that Pea Son has lost the changing room again. He needs to resign, plug the 4G into the sofa and sell Tufacs for shiffing everywhere.

Mawsley.....You´re starting to sound like FRED/DOBRANOVICH from the Mercury forum!
